Reminders…
I sat in church today and was reminded that God is everywhere. I know this. Truly I do. He is in the big things and the little things. He knows my thoughts and the number of hairs on my head. I have seen Him work in so many things during my life. I have been driven to my knees, at my child’s bedside, begging for “Jesus, Come to My Rescue” (yes, the song lyrics) and seen Him work miracles. I am constantly blown away by this. I know that He and only He knows the number of days we have each been allotted. I know that His plan is perfect, as is His timing. But today the reminder that He truly is every where was just what I needed to hear. It brought tears to my eyes. God is not a Father who only disciplines. He is not an angry judge waiting for you to mess up. He is a Father that can work all things for good. All things. That is absolutely, positively mind blowing.
So today whenever my nervousness or fear raises it’s ugly head, I will hear Pastor’s voice reminding me that God is in control. That He knows all and would not have placed these children on my heart if it was not meant to be. I pray that I can be the mother that Benjamin & Maisey need. I pray that the moment they see Dan & I they can feel all the love we have felt for a year now. I pray that they will be at peace and know that they are loved.
